Quick question's, if they partially assembled, how does that effect the BOM listed in the batch 1 thread. Is the Xilinx chip pre-soldered. Also how does buffered and unbuffered ram affect the operation in terms of games and such? I envy you, I should have learned to code back in the 8bit days, the CPLD stuff has left me behind

Your time is appreciated and hope you can get back adequate compensation for your efforts

Only passives and 2 buffer chips are soldered. The remaining BOM is as on the previous thread. The XIlinx chip is not provided. This chip costs more than the board price i am offering this at.

I am a bit worried that people are asking for boards without knowing this.

No worries from me, I'm a Electronics tech with over 30 plus years of experience. I love to build personally. I find it oddly theriputic

But it does appear that you didnt read the original post. Which has me concerned it multiple people did this.

I really want a couple for my H4 builds but know I'm not likely to get one working if I try to do it myself (or not until I build up my skills a bit more), so will be hoping to get one (or two) pre-built from the usual source at some point.

Loving the work & can't wait for the support for ST/H4 etc. to develop further.

I did; but I read the head post from this thread and noted the "birdseed" which I took to mean populated with some surface mount parts (but not a problem if not since I already have a good deal of these parts on hand).

I have put a picture in the thread of how the boards will be delivered. If anyone wants to back out they can.

If anyone backs out, I would love a board or two.

Thank You for your hard Work, it is really appreciated!

Simplified compared to the TF534, Yup you right, I tend to skim forums. I'll go back and read the TF536 intro thread. I have some questions, I'm sure I will find the answers there. This booster fits the bill and am looking forward to building and testing

OK. I'm going to remove people's orders if i find that they've just put their name down without knowing what they are ordering. Read the forums and know what it is. If you ask for 3 boards then ask what it is i'll remove you from the list.

The boards have shipped. I expect to start sending out PMs next week. For those that arent familiar with how i do this I will send you a PM with a total for the the boards, you will add the shipping cost on from the options and a paypal address to send to.

I usually do these 5 or so at a time so i can keep track.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE include your address and forum name in the paypal note. Otherwise i have no idea who you are or who to send it to.

If you take more than a week to respond your boards will go to someone else. Probably chucky.

EDIT: If your name isnt already on the list in post 1 your post will be deleted.
